Here's what you missed from the 2016 Republican National Convention

Every four years the Republican party comes together to officially nominate a candidate for the U.S. presidential election. This year they hailed to Cleveland, Ohio for the 41st convention in the party's history. Donald Trump formally accepted the presidential nomination, bringing alongside his running mate Mike Pence.

The convention lasted four days, each day featuring speakers who spoke in lieu of their support for Trump. Former presidential candidate Ted Cruz took that stage on Wednesday, only to be booed off as he refused to endorse Trump. Ivanka Trump was coined a political star for her speech -- highlighting her father's softer side. As for Donald -- he spoke for 73 minutes the longest in recent history.

AOL.com was on the outside the doors and on the floor of the 2016 RNC -- so just in case you missed anything -- we've got you covered.
